We arrived in Dublin on September 26, 2018 and took a taxi to our homestay which was on North Circular Road. It was very conveniently located, walking distance to a number of locations and close to bus stations and the train terminal. Our daughter who was due to attend a conference in Dublin later in the week, flew in early to join us during our visit.
Like all good tourists we dutifully paid a visit to the Guinness Storehouse Factory where we went on the informative seven floor tour of Guinness history. The seven floors wrap around a glass atrium shaped like a pint of Guinness. We learned how to properly pour a pint of Guinness, received our certificates and then enjoyed a pint at the Gravity Bar on the seventh floor.
